Icon3 An Idea, a hope, a dream

Everquest 2 PvP Rocks

i have been playing EQ2 on the PvE server unrest for about as long as the games been out, but due to sevreal podcast, i have made a good dirge on nagafan.
I still play PvE cause i have a 54 raider monk going, but when i can an there is not a raid i will go PvP
I want to tweak but can be bothered.
I usally pick on people who are green to me cause i can i can whip them easily, provided i can root, stun and slow them.
but what this games really needs is an area to fight over

these are my ideas for TS and Nek zones
there should be 3 tower or toarches (already in game) that if you control heroic guards of your faction spawn and potrol the roads
who ever controls the timberfalls gets a raft down the river to commenlands and who ever controls the bridge in TS can open it any time, with the right quests.

i will come up with more ideas soon

good stuff there!

To the OP:

While I understand your idea and think it's OK it's been done already in MMO's similar with DAoC and the frontier castles/relics. While this was great for DAoC, in EQ2 I'm sure it can't/won't be done due to the limits on the PvP engine (if you will) that was created.

Remember, PvP was an addon later in EQ2's life and wasn't originally here so adding complex PvP situations, as you've described, are probably not possible.

I don't know for sure but from what I've read/played over the past years it won't happen.

heh I find stuff like this funny. considering how many EQ2 people are anti-wow and never played it past level 20 with the graphics excuse.

But really, Arena cross server, with titles and useful rewards, is a great idea and I used to love contested pvp battle grounds.

The arena I could very much see happening, the contested battle grounds though... not so much.

Why not do both?

Create the battlegrounds so that PvE players can get a taste of real PvP, and add more structure to existing PvP by creating a strategic element similar to DAoC.

I quit the game because of the graphics. The game looks like a early 90's SNES game at best. If I'm going to be playing a game a few hours a night it needs to keep my attentio0n, which WOW just couldn't do. its too bad as well since they have some great ideas in that game.

If you've been playing since the game came out, how do you only have a 54 monk that "raids"?
